Forums / API / Upload API Problems

I edited the post as it looks like the code got garbled during posting, this should be right now.

I am trying to implement upload via the API in Ruby using the net/http lib. I dont seem to be getting anywhere so I am hoping somebody can offer some assistance to help me figure out where the hurdle is.

Here is the code I have, at the point that this runs I already have logged-in to the website as the user (which has granted athorization to the application), have an auth_token and a ticket_id for the upload.


host = 'www.vimeo.com'
upload_path = '/services/upload'

upload_base_sig = "#{@secret}api_key#{@api_key}ticket_id#{ticket}"
upload_api_sig = Digest::MD5.hexdigest( upload_base_sig )


# Create the POST data, multipart/form format
data = <<"DATA"
--vimeo_upload
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="api_key"
#{@api_key}
--vimeo_upload
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="auth_token"
#{token}
--vimeo_upload
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="api_sig"
#{upload_api_sig}
--vimeo_upload
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="ticket_id"
#{ticket}
--vimeo_upload
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="video"; filename="zach.mpg"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
Content-Type: video/mpg

#{video}
--vimeo_upload--
DATA

headers = {
'Accept' => 'image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/msword, application/x-gsarcade-launch, */*',
'Accept-Language' => 'en-us',
'Host' => 'www.vimeo.com',
'Referer' => "http://www.vimeo.com/",
'User-Agent' => 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)',
'Content-Type' => 'multipart/form-data; boundary="vimeo_upload"',
'Accept-Encoding' => 'gzip, deflate',
'Content-Length' => data.length.to_s,
'Connection' => 'Keep-Alive',
'Cache-Control' => 'no-cache',
'Cookie' => cookies
}

http = Net::HTTP.new( host )
resp, data = http.post( upload_path , data, headers )

puts 'Code: ' resp.code
puts 'Message: ' resp.message
puts 'Data: '
puts data

# It returns code 200 and the message is Ok, but the data passed back doesn't look right, it looks like the binary video content, or at least a chunk of it. I think the problem is in the post data code, but not certain...

Am hoping someone spots a problem for me to address.

Thanks,
Andy
